Hi Mike
I don't know whether there is any connection ,but one of my grandfathers
brothers JOHN POWELL ,although born in Hanwood Shropshire married in 1882
to Ellen Pugh in Llanfair Builth Wells. They had 9 children . later when the
parents had died the children move to Aberdare Glamorgan I am still trying
to find and descendants of this family.
Incidentally my father's cousin ELIZABETH ANN POWELL married Hanley Harrison
and in 1901/2 they emigrated to Canada. Eventually they came to Vancouver
Island and built a house at Harrison beach Auto Court at Parksville. I think
they built holiday cottages there,

Subject: [POWYS] Montgomeryshire/Radnorshire border
I'm looking for a map showing the M/R border at a sufficient
level of
detail that I can pick out individual farms.
I'm researching the Powells (and incidentally Hamers, Owens, Rees etc)
around and pre-1800 in the area bounded roughly by Llanbadarn Fynydd,
Llandinam, St Harmon and Abbycwmhir. I'd love to hear from anyone else
with similar interests.
